If you remember the Mark Foley /congressional page sex scandal about 10 years ago - there was a lot of pressure put on Hassert at the time for "possibly" being part of a coverup or more involved with Foley. Stranger things than this have happened.

Hastert was one of the countless Republicans who fought against civil rights for gay Americans, never missing a chance to vote against our progress and publicly bash us as undeserving of equal treatment under the law.

Now we discover he has a history of molesting high school boys and paying hush money to cover it up.
